Thanks so much for all this information, and thanks for replying so quickly! The biggest surprise is having to switch to a Radeon. And since I'm not at all sure that will work with my Sierra build (my main workhorse) this may come down to a new build entirely. Thanks again!
Hi, I'm trying to upgrade from Sierra to Catalina (details of my system in my profile are up to date). Followed the instructions updating with Multibeast and adding fakeSMC.kext, downloaded Catalina from the Apple Store, boot in Clover from BootMacOS Install. The progress bar got to 100% in...
My System drive SSD started showing severe signs of battle fatigue. The beachball of death came up more and more frequently, then it stopped booting altogether. I had a clone backup from before it started malfunctioning, so I got a new SSD and cloned the backup on to it. Both the new SSD and the...
As there are now only four active USB ports in IOReg, the boot problem was clearly a serious one. I don't know if it changes anything, but just in case I've recompiled a complete Problem Report with the single disk boot.
Booted with one disk. When I use EFI Mounter v3 to open the EFI, three disks appear, Clover is in the one EFI Mounter says is the boot disk, the others are empty (as usual). There are six KextToPatch in the EFI, it's the same Clover file as previously sent, so I'm just sending the new ioreg...
I'm not sure how that could be possible. Everything was made at the same time, same boot. I have a backup partition on another disk, I'll unplug it to make sure there's only one system disk on the build and redo Clover - IOReg.
Thanks for giving time to this. I couldn't use the gen-debug.sh because it wants me to use F4 on Clover boot, but when I do that the system freeze, no more mouse or keyboard functions. So I did everything manually. I don't think I missed anything !
This is driving me nuts! I have triple checked my bios, reread pretty well every 200 series kabylake sierra build on the site, toothcombed Rehabman's pages on the subject of port discovery, added and modified kexts in the EFI, re-installed and checked Multibeast 200 series port limits, and...
Thanks for taking the time to reply. The instructions in your link are what I’m trying to do, but I can’t get past the first step. I presume that after the seven requirements you mention on that page, all the ports should turn up in IO Registry, but no luck so far.
This is the situation for the...
I'm trying to fix the USB3 ports on my current build (Z270A). Up till now I only get USB2 on the USB3 ports. Following the Skylake Starter Guide (which I assume also works for Kaby Lake), it says I should get 26 entries for XHC in IO Registry Explorer, but I only get 15 (see attached file).
I...
This is my config.plist, if it helps. Also, please check the build post I made when I finished the build :

For a 1080p video on Vimeo, the VDAdecoder is running between 25 and 30%, Window server from 10 to 15% and Safari itself at about 0,5%. Does that help ?
Professionally, yes I use it for editing (Premiere) and color grading (Davinci Resolve). I haven't tested how far I can stress the GPU, but HD...
I've just updated, if you're interested. It is fairly straight forward, even though it took me three days from start to finish, searching the forums and trying solutions on repeated clones! All the best.

I'm curious to know how you managed to fit an H55 to a 1151 motherboard. I ordered one because it says it's compatible with 1151 on Corsair's web page, but the backplate doesn't line up with the holes on the board.
Update : Solved. The problem came from the fact that I had activated the graphics option in Unibeast for my GPU, but had not installed the GPU in case this complicated the install. Once installed and the monitor hooked up to the GPU, all went well. I'm still sorting out some problems - no audio...
Hello,
I'm trying to make a new build : Asus prime Z270-A motherboard, 17-7700 CPU, RAM Ballistic sport LT 16GB. I'm installing the latest version of Sierra.
The clover boot screen shows up fine. When launched, the apple logo shows up with the progress bar that goes to about 40%, then the...
